The government of Vietnam has given full recognition to the Baha’i community as a religious organization. A certificate was presented to representatives of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha’is of Vietnam at a ceremony on 25 July. It was the final act in a series of steps that included the election four months ago of the Baha’i Assembly – itself a landmark event in that it was the first time in many years that elections for the governing council were held. Government representatives were on hand to observe the balloting.

Leaders of six major religions yesterday collectively vowed to fight graft through their respective congregations, a historical first given Malaysia’s often testy inter-faith gatherings.

The six, from the Baha’i faith, Islam, Hinduism, Christianity, Buddhism and Sikhism, have drawn up short, medium and long-term action plans to convey the message that corruption is essentially a ‘sin’. The action plan was the outcome of a brainstorming session involving 40 people of different faiths who also wanted the Anti-Corruption Agency to hold short training courses.
